Stretches for the calf, ankle and foot

The Calf and and foot are generally very forgiving and even though the muscles here will tighten from over use and exertion, they will only cause you pain when the tightness exceeds a very high pain threshold. This is the very reason why these muscles tend to accumulate such a high level of tightness before relief is sought.

Similar to the way the muscles of the forearm control the hand, the muscles of the lower leg control the foot. So, it is understandable that the tightness 'collected' in the calf and anterior muscles is a result of the way the foot is used.

In this section I have collected some links to web pages with effective stretch videos and descriptions for the lower leg and foot. The stretches will help in relieving muscle tightness before it turns to pain. Calf and foot stretches will also improve you range of motion and circulation.
